Chapter 1185 Human Marksman

"..."

"..."

When the dwarves heard his words and looked at his righteous and dignified expression, they were silent for a while and looked at each other.

Even Baggins seemed to be infected.

"Okay." Finally, Balin nodded, then looked at Thorin, hesitating, "I think what he said is quite reasonable, we may give it a try, although Thranduil has turned his back on us, but that The evil dragon is the culprit who destroyed the kingdom of dwarves, if the person Mr. Ain said can really kill the dragon, we can just avenge our revenge!"

"But what if we fail?" Sorin said solemnly, "If we fail, we will all be buried in Longyan!"

"Uh..." Baggins stood up, looking a little short even in front of dwarves with his hobbit stature, "actually I think it's the right thing to do, um, I think. And the dragon slaying failed. The consequences seem to be similar to the consequences of being discovered stealing from the dragon's treasury..."

"Mr Baggins is right!" Baring agreed.

"I also voted for it." The strong Dwarin said, after a pause, he added, "The wandering mage's bravery and wisdom along the way are enough for us to trust and admire him."

"I agree too!" Kili raised his hand.

"Me too." Fei Li also raised his hand.

"Then... I will also vote." Beaufort also raised his hand with a twinkle in his eyes. He was not tough.

Then, one by one, the dwarves raised their hands in silence, in agreement, but all looked at Thorin, still waiting for him to make a decision. If he persisted against it, they would still follow him.

"You..." Thorin frowned deeply, and finally sighed, "Well, if the legendary Dark Lord is really about to return to Middle-earth, the half-orc army of Gondaba is also true, I Thinking that Middle-earth is going to face a catastrophe, even if we can't weaken the power of the dark forces, it is best not to let the dragons help them!"

"Okay! Just do it!"

"I've never been afraid of anyone when I grow up!"

"Dwarves are not afraid of anyone!"

"Slay the dragon!"

A group of unarmed dwarves wearing only thin cloth roared excitedly, and even Baggins, who looked weak, showed a smile.

"So, what's that person's name, where does he live in the Great Lake City, and how can we find him?" Bahrain, who was excited, turned his head and looked at Anyang, who had forked several fish by the river, and asked the most important question. The problem.

"Bud, his name is Bud, and he lives at a certain angle in the Great Lake City." Anyang jumped forward, as vigorous as a elf, stabbed a chubby fish with a spear in his hand.

"A certain corner? Uh..."

"Well, he is a fisherman now, and he often fishes around the lake. We should be able to meet him soon. But it will take a lot of work to convince him to help us slay the dragon!"

"Then what if he refuses?" the dwarves asked again, pulling the corners of their mouths, their hearts began to beat.

"Then grab the black arrow in his hand and remove the dwarf Fengnu from the sentry tower of Long Lake City, and I will shoot it!"

"Uh... well."

Fang Cai's excitement suddenly cooled, and Balin lowered his eyes and continued to ask: "But how can you be sure that he must have kept the black arrow and the wind scorpion on the sentry tower of Changhu City, these two things should have been accompanied by long ago. It would be right to disappear with the demise of Iruba."

"I'm a wizard, Mr. Baring."

"Uh……"

"Then the fish!" A shout came out of the river, and the dwarves raised their heads in a hurry, only to see plump fish flying towards them one after another.

"Oh!"

"These fish are huge!"

"So fat, I can eat a full meal!"

Anyang washed his hands by the river, came over to warm his hands by the fire, and said, "There are a lot of fish in the river, let's bake them, I'll fork if it's not enough!"

The flames were burning cracklingly, and as the red sun in the sky crossed the top of the snow-capped mountains, the morning sun shone on the riverside, the icy temperature was gradually receding, and a faint smell of fish permeated the riverside.

Baggins climbed the tree to investigate again, and then came back with Noli, who was on guard. The grilled fish was already cooked.

After eating, everyone waited until the clothes were dry before setting off and continuing along the river.

As soon as he walked to the lake, a barge was fishing in the edge area, and a tall man was standing on it, casting a net.

"Boffor, scream," Barin shouted.

"Nori, your name is." Bofo said.

"Bumble, it's up to you to call." Noli said.

"Mr. Thief, here's your chance," said Bumble, turning to the hobbit behind him.

"Okay!" The hobbit pondered for a while, then stepped forward, stood on the shore, put his hands to his mouth, and shouted, "Hey, sir, the fisherman, here..."

Soon, the man saw them too.

The appearance of a group of dwarves who seemed to be destitute really made him a little puzzled, so he put down the net in his hand, bowed and picked up a bow from the ground, and then slowly approached them with the oars.

Anyang instantly confirmed that this was Bard.

When the boat was getting closer to the shore, the man put down the oars in his hand, gently drew an arrow from behind, and aimed at them with a bow. Judging from that posture, he is obviously a veteran of archery, and according to his performance in the plot, even the elven archers he met before are far behind him.

"Why are you pointing the arrow at us?" Thorin asked Bud coldly, looking at him.

"There have been no dwarves in this place for many years." Bud said, glanced around, and pointed the arrow at Anyang, "You'd better put down your weapon."

"In response..." Anyang looked at him.

"I will also put down my weapon." Bud immediately added the last half of the sentence.

"Okay." Anyang immediately dropped the elf spear.

At the same time, Bud also put down his bow and arrow, and only jumped off the boat until the ship and the shore were completely connected, glanced at the pale golden spear at Anyang's feet, and immediately frowned: "Elf spear, you guys Just came from the Woodland Kingdom? And had a conflict with the elf guards? No, you don't have weapons, you can't fight the elf guards and get back completely, so where did this spear come from?"

"Pick it up." Anyang said frivolously.

This attitude basically amounts to saying: I'm telling a lie because I don't want to talk about it.

Bud looked at them carefully, still very vigilant, and said: "The economy of Long Lake City basically depends on the Woodland Kingdom. If you are the prisoners of the Woodland King, then you will definitely be arrested by the city owner of Long Lake City. I don't want to provoke myself. trouble."

"Enough, don't talk nonsense, let's ask him directly, okay?" Dwalin stood up and looked directly at Bud, "Is your name Bud?"

"Huh?" The man's eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he pulled out the bow and arrow, pointing at them, "How did you know my name, and why did you come to me?"

"I knew it was the result." Anyang sighed, Balin's situation in Changhu City was not good, so he was very vigilant.

At this time, Dewalin said again: "We are indeed here to find you, and we want you to do us a favor!"

"Help? Why should I help you?"

"Uh." Devalin was just impulsive. At this time, he didn't know what to say, so he had to turn his head to look at Anyang and make a gesture of invitation, "Come and talk to him."

"We need to enter the Great Lake City, and we need weapons and supplies." Anyang said, "You can help us do these things, and we will pay you, pay double."

With that said, he took out his purse for the first time, revealing a dozen gold coins inside. It was also obtained in the troll's storage cellar, which he never used along the way.

"It's okay to give it all to you." Anyang threw the purse directly to Bud: "We still have things to help you in the future."

Bud weighed the purse in his hand, and his expression suddenly froze.

Not long after, the group was already sitting on his boat, accompanied by wine barrels, and headed for the Great Lake City.

The thick fog was clinging to the lake surface, obscuring the vision, and even blurring the sun overhead. Only the light on the horizon was faintly visible, like a foggy morning in winter.

It was also in the middle of the lake that everyone saw Lonely Mountain, a towering mountain that was incomparably steep.

It was the home of the dwarves, their kingdom, and their glory. It is said that the height and steepness of the Lonely Mountain are unparalleled in the entire Middle-earth Continent. From a distance, only it is in sight. The surrounding mountains, no matter how high or low, all become its foil and the ups and downs under its feet, so it is called Lonely Mountain. , take the meaning of the world's highest.

When Anyang saw this mountain for the first time, he just felt that it was majestic. The hobbits were almost the same, but the dwarves were different. Almost all of them stood up in awe, staring in that direction, staring at the place that condensed all the splendor of the kingdom of Iruba.

"Oh my god!"

After a long time, they successfully entered Long Lake City and were placed in his home by Bud.

Bud's wife is dead, but he has left a son and two daughters for him. They are all well-behaved and sensible. At this time, they are burning hot tea to ward off the cold and bringing clean clothes for them.

Anyang sat on the stool, but looked around. It didn't take long before he saw the black arrow hanging on the beam. It was about one meter five long and had a very strange shape, but it was placed in the middle of the sundries by Bud. Just like an ordinary iron rod.

He retracted his gaze, just in time to meet Bud's gaze, and there was a lot of doubt and speculation in his eyes.

Anyang smiled at him, lowered his head and took a sip of hot tea.

"I'll bring the weapons to you soon, but what else do you have to talk about!" Bud looked at the group with doubts.

"Okay." Anyang put down the teacup, stood up, and stared at Bard solemnly, "Introduce myself, my name is Ain, I am a wandering wizard, I know you, Bard, and your ancestor, River Valley City The city lord Jillian, the purpose of my coming to you this time is..."

"Let you help me... slay the dragon!"
